Lunar eclipse just before dawn tomorrow — if the fog and clouds don’t get in the way

Published 12:01 am Friday, December 9, 2011

Here are the times of tomorrow morning’s total eclipse of the moon.

Unfortunately, the National Weather Service forecast for the North Olympic Peninsula calls for fog and mostly cloudy conditions, so the weather might preclude visibility.

But just in case, here are the eclipse times:

Penumbra first visible: 4:05 a.m.

Partial eclipse begins: 4:45 a.m.

Total eclipse begins: 6:05 a.m.

Mid-eclipse: 6:32 a.m.

Total eclipse ends: 6:57 a.m.

(In case you’re wondering, sunrise is at 7:46 a.m.)
